Stranger Things stars Millie Bobby Brown and David Harbour drew major attention as they laughed and hugged on the red carpet during the Stranger Things 5 premiere in Los Angeles, even as reports surfaced alleging Brown had filed a harassment complaint against Harbour. Netflix shared a clip of the two actors, both dressed in black, exchanging smiles and laughter while posing for photos. The caption read, “David Harbour and Millie Bobby Brown arrive together for one last Stranger Things premiere.” The Daily Mail earlier reported that Brown had lodged a complaint accusing Harbour of harassment and bullying before filming began for the final season. The report claimed that the complaint included extensive documentation and prompted an internal investigation lasting several months. Neither Brown nor Harbour has publicly commented on the allegations. Netflix also declined to issue a statement but sources told the outlet the company remains focused on the show’s upcoming release. “It will be a theatrical event. Nothing is going to overshadow this—not even the leading man’s private life,” a Netflix source was quoted as saying. Brown and Harbour have worked together since 2015, when she was just 11 years old. Reflecting on their bond, Harbour once said, “Millie and I have always had a special relationship because I knew her when she was so young.” Brown has described their dynamic as deeply emotional, saying in a 2018 interview, “We go through so many emotions; we get angry, we reconcile—we’re like father and daughter. It’s raw and real.”   Source: NDTV

Hollywood actor Brad Pitt has filed a new lawsuit against his ex-wife Angelina Jolie over the sale of their shared French winery, Château Miraval. According to People magazine, Pitt’s legal team recently submitted fresh documents in court, presenting communications between Jolie’s representatives regarding her 2021 sale of her stake in the winery, which the former couple co-owned. The filings included an email from November 2023 in which Jolie’s lawyers responded to Pitt’s claims for $35 million in damages. They argued that Pitt “created his own burdens” by initiating the lawsuit and must now bear the cost of producing documents that may or may not support his damage claims. Jolie’s team also alleged that Pitt was seeking ongoing compensation for harm to Miraval’s business operations and continued to withhold documents explaining the need for a four-year non-disclosure agreement covering alleged personal misconduct. Pitt first sued Jolie in 2022, claiming she violated their agreement by selling her share without his consent. The legal battle has since dragged on, with both sides accusing each other of withholding information. The next court hearing is scheduled for December 17. Pitt and Jolie, who share six children — Maddox, Pax, Zahara, Shiloh, Vivienne, and Knox — separated in 2016 after 12 years together. They finalized their divorce in December 2024.   Source: NDTV
